Taiwanese Return for Festival via Direct Sea Route
For the first time Taiwanese business people from several provinces and cities on the Chinese mainland are returning to Taiwan by the direct Xiamen-Jinmen sea route to celebrate the Chinese Spring Festival from Saturday.

Taiwanese people living in Beijing, Shanghai and southern China's Fujian, Zhejiang, Yunnan, Hunan and Jiangsu provinces will go home by the Xiamen-Jinmen route from Jan. 26 to 30.

To date, about 2,340 Taiwanese business people have registered to return for the festival via the route which opened last April, according to Zhang Baowei with the Taiwan Affairs Office in Xiamen.

The first group of 85 Taiwanese businessmen sailed from Xiamen for Jinmen across the Straits on Sunday.

About 3,500 Taiwanese passengers are expected to make the roundtrip via the route during the Spring Festival.
